We spent the morning in a cabana at the beach again, sipping tasty beverages, then relaxed on our room's balcony, coincidentally when it started raining. The sky is sad that we head home tomorrow, and so are we.

Oh yeah, we're also in Cancun for the Release Notes conference. Here are yesterday's excellent speakers, plus the closing dinner. Definitely the most relaxing conference I've ever been to, with fascinating talks and interesting conversations with successful and beginning developers, writers, and others in our industry.

Last night, the Release Notes conference started with an opening reception, followed by a marshmallow "bonfire" on the beach. Then three interesting talks today, with plenty of time for chatting with others, and a group lunch and (soon) dinner.
